NEWARK, New Jersey (WABC) -- One person was killed and others were injured in a shooting Wednesday night in Newark.

"It appears this is not a random act. We continue to struggle like many other major cities with multiple victims being shot in gatherings," Public Safety Director Anthony Ambrose said.

The violence erupted in the central ward, on Sixth Street.

At least one person was killed in the incident.

The Essex County Prosecutor's Office is investigating.
